Crispy breaded chicken breast

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Side Dishes
The secret to perfect breaded meat is the 'breading trinity' and temperature control. Flour provides adhesion, egg glues, and breadcrumbs create crispy texture. If done right, coating separates from meat, blistering golden brown, meat steaming tender in its own juices under the armour.

Instructions

1 ✓

Cut chicken breast into slices, flatten to approx. half cm. Salt, let stand 10 minutes.

Tip: Put foil over when hammering. Uniform thickness is secret to even cooking.
2 ✓

Prepare breading line: 1. plate flour, 2. plate beaten egg (little salt, pepper), 3. plate breadcrumbs.

Tip: Beat egg thoroughly with fork so protein isn't stringy, coats more evenly.
3 ✓

Dredge meat in flour (shake off excess!), dip in egg, then coat in crumbs. Press crumbs on gently with palm.

Tip: Shaking off excess flour is important, otherwise coating separates. Flour absorbs meat surface moisture.
4 ✓

Heat abundant oil in pan. Ready when a pinch of crumbs immediately sizzles to top.

Tip: Fry in plenty of oil (meat should swim), otherwise bottom burns, top stays raw (contact heat vs convection).
5 ✓

Fry meats 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper.

Tip: Don't crowd pan, as oil cools down and coating absorbs fat.

Recipe FAQ

Threw off the coat.
Either meat was wet before breading, or you didn't press crumbs on enough. Always wipe meat dry before flour!
Crumbs burnt, meat raw.
Oil was too hot. 170-180°C is ideal to start. If smoking, take off heat and cool down.
